Mainstream media blames the colored boy from Kenya for the worst Dow plunge in history..

SEAN HANNITY: Because the Obama economy was so weak all of these years we had just artificially cheap money. Now what’s cheap money? Cheap money is when you can borrow at ridiculously low rates. The era of cheap money at some point has to come to an end. The government has artificially, the Fed has artificially kept the price of money down and the price borrowing down and now that’s going to come to an end. In many ways it represents; Ashley Webster is the name? In many ways it’s a sign of the strength of the economy more than anything else.

All credit for the rise, no blame for the fall? Sounds about like Goose.

Difference is you never heard that from me, you're catching the "make up Goose quotes" fever. It's amusing that 90% of what I "said", I never said.

Just for Bob....

Well, I suppose it's true that you never said "Trump gets all the credit for gains in the stock market," but you've certainly seen fit to remark upon gains in the stock market and post links that imply or directly give credit to the economic policies of the Trump administration. But hold your horses on saying I've caught the make up Goose quotes fever, I think I'm at least as fair to you as you are to others in that regard, and I don't think what I said was really unjustified, just a tad hyperbolic.

I will give Goose credit for posting something disparaging towards Trump. Unfortunately it was a fake tweet from Sean Usher.

WASHINGTON (Reuters) - The number of Americans filing for unemployment benefits unexpectedly fell last week, dropping to its lowest level in nearly 45 years as the labor market tightened further, bolstering expectations of faster wage growth this year.

The second straight weekly decline in claims reported by the Labor Department on Thursday also pointed to strong job growth momentum, which could further drive the unemployment rate lower.

"The extremely low level of claims is a sign of tightness in the labor market and suggests that February is shaping up to be another solid month for job creation," said John Ryding, chief economist at RDQ Economics in New York.

Initial claims for state unemployment benefits decreased 9,000 to a seasonally adjusted 221,000 for the week ended Feb. 3, the Labor Department said. Claims fell to 216,000 in mid-January, which was the lowest level since January 1973.

Economists polled by Reuters had forecast claims rising to 232,000 in the latest week. Last week marked the 153rd straight week that claims remained below the 300,000 threshold, which is associated with a strong labor market. That is the longest such stretch since 1970, when the labor market was much smaller.

It's more Pro-Obama than Pro-Trump. Mostly Pro-Obama actually. I didn't know you were a big Obama booster Goose!

like the number of women the sexual predator's aide assaulted, the number of women who have accused the sexual predator of assaulting them, the number of jobs leaving under the sexual predator's economy, etc.

Can everyone please acknowledge the goddamn perfect timing of this post.

I was going to quote this yesterday but decided against it. You're like Warren Buffett or some shit. Would you like to be my portfolio manager?

Pretty sure this is the second time in a year you’ve posted something like this. I’ll say what I said the first time: Neither I, nor anyone I know, nor anyone on this board has ever said they would move from the country or renounce their citizenship. Please stop perpetuating this false narrative.
